Maintenance
Servicing the Filter
NOTE: Be sure to frequently clean the fi lter. Allow fi lter to dry after being used for wet pick-up.
Filters used for wet pick-up including stripper must be thoroughly cleaned before being allowed to dry.
Worn fi lters can affect vacuum performance.
Replace the f lter when it becomes worn out and normal cleaning of the f lter will not restore vacuum performance.
The f lter is accessed by lifting the head assembly off the tank.
Foam f lter is easily removed by simply lifting the f lter basket out of the tank.
Optional Cartridge f lters – Remove the f lter retainer by unscrewing the retaining nut and replace with new f lter.
